Are you in the market for a "Summer Fun" Wii bundle to get your Independence Day started right? Oh, yeah? Fantastic, 'cause GameStop has just the packages for you. For the low, low price of $249.99, the aforementioned bundle consists of a Nintendo Wii console, a water gun and... wait, what? Amazingly enough, GameStop has seen fit to bundle a $0.25 water gun with a Wii and call it a bundle; heck, it's even limiting them to two per household. If that's not strange enough for you, there's also the Pirate Tattoo bundle and Take a Bath with a Buddy (a rubber ducky, just so we're clear) bundle. Talk about really taking advantage of that whole "freedom" thing.

pembo has updated BootMii Configuration Editor to v2.0
BootMii configuration editor allows you to change the values in the /bootmii/bootmii.ini file without having to take out the SD card and edit it on a PC.
Version 2.0
Settings Dialog to change editor settings. This can be accessed by pressing the ‘HOME’ button. The settings are persisted to the langauges file, so if you change the language/skin, whenever you load BootMii Configuration Editor, your selected options will be the default
Internationalisation Supported (Currently English & Spanish Langauges available). Further langauges can be added by editing the bce_messages.xml file. See the readme.txt for details of how to do this
Please be careful if you do edit the XML file. A corrupt/non well-formed XML file
will result in a Crash of the Wii and will dump the stack to the screen.
Ensure you take a backup of the original before attempting to make any custom changes
Currently you can only use characters in the standard ASCII character set,
e.g. [0-9] [a-z] [A-Z] Some puncation characters may also cause issue
It is recommended that you do not use characters with any accents/umlauts/etc
as this will cause an issue
If you do create a translation for a new language please let me know and I’ll then include it in the next release!
Skins/Colour Change. The application can now be presented in a number of look & feels. Initially the following skins are available:
Windows - Windows Installer/DOS like look/feel with a blue background and grey windows
Console - Black background, white text with other colour text to highlight options/selections
Inverse Console - White background, black text with other colour text to highlight options/selections
Custom Skins can be added by editing the bce_messages.xml file. See the readme.txt for instructions on how to do this.
Online version Checking. When the Editor is loaded, it performs a check to see if the version running is the latest available version. If a newer version is available, then a message is shown for a few seconds during startup to indicate this. This online checking can be disabled if you do not wish BootMii Configuration Editor to check for a new version or do not have the wii networked. If you wish to disable this check, see the instructions in the readme.txt
Please be careful if you do edit the XML file. A corrupt/non well-formed XML
file will result in a Crash of the Wii and will dump the stack to the screen.
Ensure you take a backup of the original before attempting to make any custom changes.

News/release from tehpola
I’m sorry for those of you who will be disappointed that I’m not posting to talk about Wii64 or WiiSX right now, but I have another little release I’d like to announce. A month or so ago, I was working on porting OpenJazz, a Jazz Jackrabbit 1 engine, to the Wii, and I got it in a pretty polished condition. However, I didn’t release it earlier because I couldn’t get the network support just right. I’ve decided to roll it out in its current state without networking and hopefully someone else interested in the project will pick it up because I’d like to focus more on Wii64. Anyone interested should check out: the google code page.

JJ Hendricks, an avid games collector, recently paid $17,500 for a single video game. If you've ever wondered what it feels like to spend that much on a video game, Hendricks has written all about it!
The game in question is one we actually featured a few weeks back: a gold Nintendo World Championships cartridge, which had originally been listed on eBay for $25,000.
There were only ever 26 of these ever made, and despite the fact they're not actually gold - it's just gold paint - they're safely the most expensive, valuable video games on the open market.
Having failed to sell at that price, Hendricks got in a lowball offer, one which was eventually accepted by the seller. And on VGPC, has written about it. The ups, downs, the obstacles, the ecstasy. Every sentence makes the knot in the pit of your stomach grow ever tighter.
It's a fun read! Fun because he's the one that spent $17,500 on a game, and not us.

The Wii's September 29 prequel to last year's Dead Space has a control scheme EA's Visceral Games couldn't put on an Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3. A new EA trailer shows how it works.
Dead Space Extraction will be out September 29. As you watch, remember, EA calls this a "guided first-person experience." Different platform. Different style of game. Do you like what you see?

There are several offerings spread across DSiWare, WiiWare and Virtual Console today - all in celebration of another Hanabi festival. This typically fills Nintendo's online cupboards with old games previously restricted to Japan, and bumps the price up a bit in the process.
Those oldies are action platform Mega Drive game Pulseman, and SNES strategy game Ogre Battle: The March of the Black Queen. Both cost 900 Nintendo Points (GBP 6.30 / EUR 9 approx - online-bought points and shop-bought points differ in price).
Today also marks the release of Konami's first WiiWare game Gradius Rebirth, which will be followed by top-down racer Driift Mania later this month and Contra Rebirth in August.
Gradius Rebirth is joined on WiiWare by Bit Boy!!, a pixelated RPG, which has 4-bit dungeons, 8-bit caves, 16-bit strongholds, 32-bit labyrinths, 64-bit arenas and 128-bit worlds. Apparently. Gradius Rebirth and Bit Boy!! cost 600 NP (GBP 4.20 / EUR 6 approx) each.
DSiWare boasts two Mario-themed extras - a clock and a calculator - for 200 NP (GBP 1.40 / EUR 2 approx) each. There's also Brain Challenge, which isn't Brain Training but might as well be. Brain Challenge costs 800 NP (GBP 5.60 / EUR 8 approx).

Ashes Cricket 2009 will be the first cricket game on Wii when it bowls into shops in August, and we've got some new screens.
Fully licensed players, kit and stadia will feature, along with four-player gameplay and modes including an Ashes Series, Test Matches and games limited to 20 overs, whatever that means (Ed - you what?*).
As you'd imagine you bat using a swinging motion with the Wii Remote, which'll let you drive, cut, slog and nurdle your way through innings, apparently.
"When fielding, players will use the Wii Remote to polish the ball, set their field and bowl accurately applying swing/turn to their deliveries in order to take those all important wickets," explains the press release, because we've given up trying to form sentences with all these cricket terms(*).
"Ashes Cricket 2009 will also feature a Scenario mode that will pit players against more than 50 match defining moments, such as scoring vital match-winning runs, taking dramatic last-gasp wickets and seeing off the oppositions' danger men to succeed."
So, a game about the sport fat men can be pro at is coming to Wii in August.

Fans of Chibi-Robo should enjoy Okaeri! Chibi-Robo! Happy Rich Oosouji (Welcome Home Chibi-Robo! Happy, Rich Big Sweep). The two games are pretty similar. Players pick up trash, sweep floors, and do chores to keep Jenny and her family happy.
Yes, Jenny the little girl who had a thing for frogs is all grown up. She has a boy named Keith who loves wrestling, a dog called Lucky, and Chibi-Robo! Unlike Chibi-Robo: Park Patrol this game takes place inside a house — a messy house you have to clean up. Chibi-Robo has a toothbrush to scrub floors and a new vacuum cleaner to suck up dust.
Chibi-Robo also has a little sifter which can separate dirt from precious gems. These are traded inside Chibi-Robo’s little home for money, which he uses to purchase furniture from a home shopping network. Since Chibi-Robo is so tiny he has to “dance” on a phone to place an order. How adorable.
There are a few gameplay movies of Okaeri! Chibi-Robo! Happy Rich Oosouji over at the official page, which Nintendo finally opened. Welcome Home Chibi-Robo! Happy, Rich Big Sweep is scheduled to come out in Japan on July 23. A North American release has not been announced at this time.

Sega hasn’t forgotten about Infinite Space. PlatinumGames’ second project is being localized. One of the anime shorts created by Production I.G. already has English voice acting.
Along with the clip, Sega announced Infinite Space is on course for a spring 2010 release. The Japanese version came out last month and it topped the charts the week it came out.

brunette_redhead has released Bugiin 1.3.
If you have ever played Mario Paint for the SNES, then you have probably played the Gnat Attack game (also known as Coffee Break). My game is a spinoff of this, created for the Wii. I took many creative liberties with it, including redoing all of the sound effects with my brother and my girlfriend, and switching up the game modes just a bit.
There are two main game modes, the "Classic" mode, which is level based much like the original. There is also a "Swarm" mode which features endless enemies.
Changelog
V1.3 - 07/01/09
Classic mode supports 2 players now.
An options menu has been added to select graphics mode and toggle music/sfx.
Swarm mode uses new swatter graphics.
Screen shots can be taken by pressing the 1 button at any time.
Pressing the 2 button brings up a help screen.
Pressing plus during gameplay pauses game.
Added border during gameplay.
